Not suprising. This buying spree has been going on for a lot longer than people (me included) initially thought. Guess I'll have to start making a run every other day.
The Academy near me also has the same sign up. What is funny to me though is that they have no practical way of enforcing the new ammo limit. They can limit you to 3 boxes per purchase but if you go in once in the morning and then again in the evening when the shift changes, they will never know you were there twice in one day. My dad went in one day just to see if they were actually enforcing the limit and they were on each of the purchases he made.....30min apart....from the same customer service rep.

I think the ammo limit was prompted more by the long lines early in the morning and people complaining of one or two customers purchasing the entire shipment's worth of a certain caliber when the put out stock in the morning. Dad phone me the other day and said a son and father were first in line one morning waiting to go in and purchase ammo. They bought about $5k worth of ammo and bought all the stock of 3 different calibers. I tend to think those 7:30am crazy rushes to buy ammo were too much of a liability.
